Turtle Friends, so fitting for another one of mine and Vicki's challenges... Vicki picked this cut... and I picked Friends after looking at the cut... I though "Those realistic turtles oh Vicki you have got to be kidding me!". but that is what makes it a challenge isn't it... then I found my paper...and knew the front facing turtle was sitting on the back of the side facing turtle and I got excited and went to work... I hope that you like it... it was such a fun card to do.

Disclaimer: My thief of a cat took my directions!!!... she always takes my craft supplies... I have no idea why!...but this time while my card was drying she took my directions ... so this is from memory...

CRICUT

Animal Kingdom

Side turtle cut at either 3 inches or 2 3/4 inches.

Front facing turtle cut @ either 2 inches or 1 3/2 inches.

I am thinking its the whole numbers but they are measuring the fraction numbers.

Zoobaloos

Grass cut @ 1 inch on real dial size... twice on layer feature for the front rows once on regular cut for the back row which I wish I had cut at 1 1/4 inch (the back row).

This week over at The Cuttlebug Spot we were to make cards that celebrate our great country, America... this is what I came up with... I used the I was so proud of this one when I finished!!... which was nice because I was really worried that I could come up with a fitting card... be sure and check out The Cuttlebug Spot for the wonderful wonderful cards that the other Design Team members made to Celebrate America...I hope that you like it as well... I cherish your comments!

To glitter the circle text and the Happy Birthday Madison I ran the paper through my Zyron upside down after the text was printed and added Sugar Glitter.

My almost SIL, Cory (July 11th) has a birthday on July 4th.... I tried to think of something other than the 4th for his birthday card...but this one kept creeping up in my brain.... so I figured it was meant to be... there is no Cricut on this card...I can't believe that I could even make a card without my Cricut!!!... but here it is... the image is an old postage stamp image...I cut it in 4ths and framed each piece.. I used lots of pop dots...and made the fire cracker with my own two hands...and the paper trimmer of course...I hope he likes it..and that you do too... I cherish your comments!!...thank you for looking!

My son John-Robert is off to camp...where he lives in basketball shorts.... this time as Co-Director at camp...he is so excited... he started at age 8 as a camper...became a counselor at the age of 15... and now this year he is a Camp Co-Director... we are so proud and excited for him... ideas are bouncing off his head all the time to make it great ... it has been so fun to hear him talk about all his ideas to grow camp ever bigger... camp is where he accepted Jesus ... it has been the most positive, rewarding, fun experience for him and he loves it... I think he lives for it... and he is good at it... it will be why he will be a great teacher!!.. anyway this is a card (it measures right about 9 1/4 inches) for him to have his first staff to sign to remember his first year as on of the camp Directors...

Vicki and I had so much fun yesterday making our own challenge!!! the we just had to do another one... we chose the Pooh and Friends flowers on the "tiger" word page...and added Nanna's Nursery paper since we both had it... it was so so fun...I can't wait to see hers... this has really added a new dimension to making a card...different from a regular challenge... since we post at the same time...it gets really exciting!!... Hope you like both cards!!! Thanks for looking.. ~~Hugs, Jeannie

CRICUT

Pooh & Friends

Flowers cut @ 5 inches once on regular cut, 2 times on shift for the layers.

The layers I cut once to add to the green where the flower cut out...the second I shaded with color pencils and pop-dotted from the first ones... I glued the bottom of the flower directly to the bottom flower and popped it in the middle.

The flowers and leafs of the first cut are popped from the paper but the stem is glued directly to the background paper.

CRICUT

Animal Kingdom

Rooster cut @ 2 inches 3 times once in orange on regular cut...once in red and brown on the shift feature... then trimmed up where necessary to make his color scheme.
